I'm putting these 2 high-end bass saturation pedals through a rigorous shoot out. Which one suits your needs?
This is in no way an exhaustive review of all the pedals' features but hopefully gives you an idea what they sound like!
Jad Freer added these comments regarding the Capo:
1- If you are going to the F side and need more highs you can engage the BITE switch, it works just on that side of the preamp
2- BLEND is not a blend with the direct signal but with a fixed gain clean preamp so you can use the CAPO without any saturation and go full clean with EQ. Note that at 18:00 you are using the pedal with also B side engaged: so you are not blending with a clean sound but the A side clean with the B side saturated.
3- yes, its a low pass filter...it gently cuts over 10K to make drive tones smoother when going direct. I like it also for clean tones, a little bit more vintage.
I think you fairly show that one is a coloured amp sim and the other is a full featured preamp.
Signal chain:
Elixir 45s
Moollon J Classic passive bass
(AB output switcher)
BassRig/Capo
(Lehle input selector)
Little Labs Redeye DI box
Metric Halo mic pre (very clean interface mic pre)
00:11 Introduction
02:16 My goal - subtle saturation
05:49 Bassrig ‘64
09:45 Capo
12:39 Comparing heavy drive settings
18:56 EQ

the level of detail is really outstanding out in your video! It also makes perfect sense to talk about the usecases with effects imo.

My favourite bass guitarist, thank you Rob. I vote Bass Rig, because vibe is king

I was torn between these two, but i ended up buying the Capo because of the versatility. Two DI signals with the FX loops and the different preamps make every sound imaginable!

Thank you so much for this! Wish there was as thorough and real a review of the SVT one, compared to a dif SVT pre like you've done here would be a treat

Been too long Rob. Love you taking the time to engage with us, your craft and talent is deeply valued 👌🏼 curious to know when you’d change the tone controls on the bass itself vs the pedals and how that affects the overall tone?

@RobinMullarkey Жыл бұрын

Hey Simon. I rarely touch the bass tone pot once I find the sweet spot. Usually around 7/10 depending on the bass

Thanks for the video, helped me decide on which to get. I know what you mean now (having bought it) when you said the eq on the BassRig was flattering, subtle but very nice. The Capo sounds like a great pedal as well. Spoiled for choice.

Thank you for this great comparison, I really like how you bring out some details. I'm currently looking for a supplement or expansion for my clean Glockenklang (test)amp, and I have these two pedals on my shortlist. And now, thanks to your video, I now want to have both ....😉 greetings from Munich, Andi

Great video again Rob, Thanks! I'll be going for the Bass Rig. Also, curious what you might think of the Markbass vintage pre-amp. Have been hesitating to buy one for months now. Hearing great things about that pedal.

I got turned on to the Capo by Tim Lefebvre. I liked it so much, I got a second one for a travel board. It's an amazing preamp.

@hiraxxvandana8408 Ай бұрын

another epic content as always. I am currently using a black edition DCX Bass in EQ mode as a tone shaper with my Darkglass Alpha Omega Photon. Now, I'm just waiting for my OE Bass Rig 64 Black to arrive to add to my minimalist fly rig. I plan to place the Bass Rig at the end of the chain (EBMM Stingray 4 > DCX Bass > DG Alpha Omega Photon > 64 Black). I intend to use the DCX Bass as a boost or for my clean tone, and have my Darkglass drive the Bass Rig. Considering that they are all preamps, would it be too much to have three preamps on one board? If you can please create a content stacking pre amps like origin with darkglass would be killer.

Great Video. Both are outstanding pieces of gear. And expensive. If you could afford only one, which one would recommend for an overall flexible use? Or which one would you prefer for what reason? Thanks

Hey, does anyone have the Shift Line Olympic and the Jad Freer Audio Capo. Both seem like awesome pre-amps. Would love to hear the Shift Line Olympic and the JAD Freer Audio CAPO in a comparison video. If anyone who viewed this video wants to compare them in a video, that would be great.

@laurenzhacker5742 2 ай бұрын

a little late to the party here. but I feel it's very unfortunate that the EQ on the BassRig doesn't engage without the Drive turned on... that's why I sold mine and got the Capo - which I really like. cheers, great video!

1 thing the settings on the BassRig are not flat. Like a Bassman flat is with the bass all the way off and the mid all the way up.

@@profile2047 Simon stated that it has a Fender tonestack. A fender tonestack does not have a mid boost (only cut) and is flat with the bass and treble control at zero and the bass control above zero around 8-9 o'clock (as tested on my Bassrig '64). BTW, I own both the Origin Bassrig '64 (and the Super Vintage).

Non sono affatto di mio gusto. Secondo me sono scorregge, non suoni musicali. Pagare per bene per scorreggiare tanto. Questa è la nuova moda, nelle mie annate (70-80) il suono del basso era tutt'altra cosa.
